That's an amazing piece of (il)logic that just topedoed just about every
expensive product ever made.

Personally, when I screw up and make a dumb investment I'm not too proud to
admit it - having said that I bought a Bose - I love it - I bought another -
love that one too - and am after 2 more because I want my passengers to have
the best.

The other possibility you need to consider is that the reason they cost so
much is that they are actually better than the others. eg. Seen many others
using a titanium headband to reduce weight?

I'm told they sell something like 600 a month - so I guess a few others must
like them too - despite the price.

Cockpit,

Sure. I just wanted to point out that these kinds of customer satisfaction
surveys have their pitfalls.

And of course, the price vs. value proposition is different for different
people.

Minor Nit: Actually, it's cast magnesium, not titanium - magnesium is
even lighter still.
